Just something that has been stuck in my head all week. After waching the Japanese wrestling federation HUSTLE (Japan's take on sports entertainment) there was one thing that really stood out in mind. Tiger Jeet Singh (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_Jeet_Singh) came out for his match and completely went nuts on the fans, throwing chairs at them, running through the crowd with his sabre. It was quite a sight to behold in this day and age as you cannot imgaine seeing that in places like WWE.
Anyway, while seeing Singh scare off the fans, I instantly thought of Nosfera. Also, I remember hearing that Singh used to spit fire at his opponents, something that Nosfera is known to do. So am I onto something when I say there is a connection between the two wrestlers, that Singh could have had some inspiration on Nosfera's design? Or am I looking too much into this?
